Default First Truck

I just bought my first truck 2001 Ranger Edge
130,000 miles 4x4 needs work but will get into top shape in time.
Live on South Padre Island Tx so rust will be my enemyhttp://www.fordrangerforum.com/images/smilies/mad.gif

Welcome to FRF...

I too had to deal with rust issues on my ford ranger. Both my truck and myself are Ohioans', so rust is not something unusual. If you want to see my truck through the "build", then click the link in my signature and checkout my profile for pictures.

My passenger side lower door latch not locking, is this fixable or do I need to buy from dealer?
Thanks
